This Bantam Shield crane has been sitting for over 8 years! Will it start? If it starts will it run and operate? Let's find out!

This truck and I are beginning to have a painful history!

The truck is a General Motors 1945 World war two era 6X6. Also known as a cckw353 former military surplus truck made into a crane. Sitting atop is a Bantam model T35 crane. We call this rig "War Baby." The crane has a 4 cylinder gas powered Leroi engine. The crane is currently equipped with an orange peel bucket for digging 4 foot diameter water wells.
